6th Grade Mathematics

Hello! My name is Bryant Stewart, and I am one of several conductors of the math curiosity train at Fulmer Middle School. I’m currently in my redshirt sophomore season here at Fulmer Middle School, having had the privilege of student teaching 6th grade ELA, then teaching 7th grade Math my first full year, and currently having a blast as part of the 6th Grade Dream Team, serving as a Math teacher and 2nd year basketball coach of the Men’s Fulmer Falcons.

I hail from Lexington, SC originally, but traveled upstate to undergo my professional training at Newberry College, home of the formerly-Native-American, currently Wolves. #HailScarlet&Gray! While at Newberry, I served one year on the basketball team, and 2 years as an assistant basketball coach at Newberry Middle School while completing my Bachelors of Science degree in Middle Level Education with a specialty in Mathematics and English Language Arts.

The only way to learn math is to do math. My goal this year is to instill a growth mindset in our students that reinforces the belief system of hard work leading to positive results. In the words of John Wooden, “There is no substitute for work. Worthwhile results come from hard work and careful planning.”

In my free time I enjoy adventuring the great outdoors, playing basketball, hitting the net in intense games of Spike-Ball with friends, reading on a rainy day with a cup of Yoo-hoo (stirred, not shaken), and assisting in planning my upcoming wedding to the current, delightful, Teacher of the Year at FMS. Please feel free to contact me anytime at bstewart@lex2.org if you have any questions. My planning time is from 1:35 PM to 3:20 PM Monday through Friday.
